A big ol’ tip on drawing cities from street-level. The drawings are pretty crude, (I did them very fast,) but I think they get the point across :) I’m sure some streets like in the first example actually exist in the world, but why would you choose to draw something so boringly bland?

Hope it helps you out!

weh I have so much to learn on in the “drawing cities” front. I always try to push myself to do better, but I can never quite stage my sidewalks right. I blame it on growing up in a town with no sidewalks or buildings higher than two stories.

I just want to add backgrounds in general have stuff LOTS OF STUFF. I love love love well done backgrounds

Man, some day I hope to draw a city street as well as the first picture.
